Holiday Sets: When are they revealed?

[emilypolg]

Not sure if we've got a lot of MAC fans here but I just got my Viva Glamorous palette in the mail and will swatch/post pictures if anyone is interested /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

My baby sister is crying because she was saving up to get me the KVD set and it just went out of stock. I'm going to try my darnedest to find one in person next weekend.

Here is a sale section they have. I bought the Divine Indulgence Set! Love that stuff!

I got it last week and while the highlighter is very pretty, the blush is quite light.  I've got medium warm skin and it barely shows up.  I really have to pack it on to get any color.  But someone posted some swatches a couple pages back and it looked gorgeous on her!

That was me!  lol.. I also had to pack it on to see it, but I have to do that for all my Tarte blushes, so I just assumed that was normal.  My face tends to eat that blush brand for some reason.  But then again, it isn't supposed to be super noticable, it is more for warmth/subtle natural flush-glow vs. "hey check out my blush"..  I still love the highlighter more too though, which is well worth the 10$, I love that pinky/rose gold/coppery shimmer in it.

I usually use Urban Decay's Primer Potion but to be honest, any primer would work! I'm unsure what lipstick shade I'm wearing since this was a while back /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm 100% sure it's MAC's Bad Girl Riri /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> @@JC327 <3

On the topic of Lorac's Mega Pro Palette...

Here is today's look:

LORACmegapro2.jpg

I used Deep Teal all over the lid + outer lower lash line, Brown in the crease, Cream as the highlighter, and Vanilla on the inner lower lash line.

There's ALWAYS that one piece of hair that gets stuck to my face D; and don't mind the lipstick... I swapped it out with a more neutral one when I was in the car (the MUFE lipstick that was part of Sephora's birthday gift)

Pretty!

I am so disappointed!  I don't think I'll be able to buy any of the holiday sets now.  My family just found out today that my Mom needs to have surgery, and will be out of work for 6 weeks.  So, now all of my money has to go to supporting the house while she's recovering. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  The only way I could justify buying anything is with either my Ulta or Birchbox points (which I have about $30 worth of points on each).

Sorry to hear that, hope all goes well with your mom's surgery.

Sorry to hear that, hope all goes well with your mom's surgery.

Thanks, it's set for 12/4.  So hopefully it all goes smoothly!

You are so sweet and generous! First the donation to the animal shelter, now this? Girl!

In other news!

Hey hey hey, does anyone think Lorac will get more Mega Pro palettes up for sale? I really wanted to get one but missed it- it's sold out on Lorac.com and Amazon.com and I don't want to pay Ebay prices ($100-160). Since it sold out so quickly, it makes me think that maybe they'll produce more.... but what do you think? Should I just bite the bullet and get one on ebay? Should I just deal with the fact that I didn't get it and take it as a sign?

I dont know if you were able to order it yet but it keeps coming back in stock on Amazon took me a couple of days to get it but I ordered it on Monday. It said they would be back in stock. The ebay prices are ridiculous so i wouldnt suggest getting it from there.

Thank you @ and @@eastofthesun for the kind words, but in a way, I'm doing it to be selfish- I had someone say the cruelest things ANYONE has ever said to me, EVER. The only way I'm going to be able to shake it off is to be kind and do good for others, which makes me feel better no matter what (I learned this a long time ago- when someone makes me question myself by saying cruel things, I just try to be the best person I can be). So, again, it's a selfish thing /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> @@Megan27ist PM me if you want them /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

so sorry to hear that anyone would treat you like that, its always a joy to see you on  these threads. Sometimes people think that by making someone feel bad they can make themselves feel better I feel sad for people like that. Hope things are looking better for you.

I know it won't happen, but a drugstore advent calender would be cute. I'm thinking of l'oreal and maybelline, maybe even Wet N Wild or Revlon. Mini color tattoos and Revlon lipsticks, eee!!

I would be all over that!

I hit up my military exchange store yesterday to see if they had any of the Too Faced holiday sets in stock.  They didn't, but they did have a table of Lancome products they were clearancing out :smilehappyyes: I picked up a 1.7 oz bottle of the Genefique serum for less than $65.  But I managed to resist everything else.

I've seen this swirling around Twitter the past few days and was convinced it couldn't be real….i'm amazed. BUT i really, really don't think i need it. Greater starter gift for new UD junkies though!

Edit: I really wish they'd release just the palettes. Either with or without the basics. Now THAT i would buy with zero doubts. I already have Naked3 but could easily find someone to pass the duplicate to.

Got this in the mail from Ulta today.  I love it!

I really only ordered it because I REALLY wanted the balms (not so much the tints) but I am doing CS 6 and I have a baby Benetint and baby lollitint so I will save them for the swap box or Secret santa!

I should probably take out the lippes and roll em up to see how much product I got before I complete my raving! Haha

haha! i wanna see!

i love the tints. i have the full sized lollitint which i regularly use, and a mini benetint that's almost out! just wasn't sure about the balms. i really wanted them at first cause of the packaging, but i don't know now.

@@saku

I am not sure how much product is in the one from the full size vs the one in the sampler but it was WAY more than the mini/samples!  I am pleased!

Here are the pics.  I suck at taking photos so I did one with flash and one with out.   I assume the big one has sweat on it cause it was 80+ here today!  Helllo fall!

[tweakabell]

I have this on my way from my last ulta order. Your pics make me want it to hurry up lol
